Description
This is a PDF sewing pattern and tutorial to teach you how to create these garments. YOU WILL NOT RECIEVE ANYTHING IN THE MAIL.
Be Bold Bodysuit is a great crop or leotard for all seasons. You can pick from a ton of options for both warm and cooler weather. This classic leotard is a tight fit and can double as a swimsuit if you use swim fabrics and elastics. Baby and toddler sizes (3months-5t) include an extra option for snaps for ease of changing. All sizes include partial lining for crotch.
It is drafted for a high stretch knit. Some favorites are: cotton spandex, athletic knits, ribbed knits, double brushed poly, and swim fabrics.
Options include: crop length, bodysuit, tank with thin straps, tank, short sleeve, 3/4 sleeve, and long sleeves. You can choose to add a shelf bra with lined neckline or finish the neckline with an adorable picot elastic.
Enjoy several videos throughout the tutorial like fabric suggestions, sewing up the side seams, sewing the gathered sleeves and a complete sew up.
Here is a round up blog post and album full of photos to look through!
